Update on Milwaukee doctor. SM - Got paid, but what a story.

**monitors, if this is not appropriate, please let me know. Dr Farzaneh Tondkar - I believe she does social security exams as well as other dictation work. She sent multiple voice files, I type them up and send back the same day, she will claim 2 days later she never got the work. I extensively explain how I sent things, she didn't get them in email. Then another dance of how she didn't get the work, I re-send it again. I also spent time double checking every single voice file ...

Hi everyone I just wanted to stop by really quick and let you all know that finally, FINALLY I am off QA. I was given two accounts today in addition to the one they had initially given me. I can now type w/o counting my reports and waiting for feedback first. It remains to be seen of course, whether or not there will be as much work as I was told but so far, this company has been true to their word. Still, four days on a very restrictive QA protocol was quite scary. I am a LOT grayer now ...

20 years ago when the DRG's hit the hospitals, one was complaing to the other... "they treat doctors like a bunch of old dogs now". Well, that's how MTs are being treated now. Why on God's green earth do the MT services require all MT's to work at least one weekend day every week (Friday's and Monday's don't count). Every ad I see on the Job Seeker board requires weekends. Are they sadistic or something. Why do we put u ...

Just a quick line to let you all know that there are better things out there for you. I am now 79 days away from graduating with my MD. The only blocks I have left are orthopedics and pain management. I have worked my way through medical school, which of course means I did not have much time to study. None the less, I am in the top 10% of my class, and I attribute it to the information I learned transcribing. Even if you feel you do not have the 4+ years to put ...

Having problems doing the upgrade. Support is working on it. In the meantime, does anybody know if not having this installed will create problems with getting jobs? CCM doesn't know. So far I've been able to work as usual. I'm just scared I'll go to log on and be locked out because I don't have the upgrade working yet. Thanks ...

So, I logged on and promptly got booted right off. Message says I need to "update" (again??) before I can continue. I am in MQ central as I type but cannot find any update anywhere. Does anyone know where it is hiding? (under what category or tab...) Thank you all so much for always helping this old gal! ...

Okay so when I logged in this morning, I get the message to upgrade. I am currently using Vista. When I go to Docqmanage to upgrade, I get the message "The version of DocQscribe you are trying to install requires the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package SP2." I tried to install it, but it says its not compatible with Vista! Somebody Help!! ...

Couldn't sign in this morning, says I need to do another update. I tried to find how to do that with QScare, e-mailing my CCM, but no response after an hour. Does anyone know how to do this? Isn't it in MQCentral somewhere? I wish I could do a search on the site, but I had to navigate through each of the options in every department, and can't find any portal. Anyone know how to do this? ...

I pointed out the job number and QA person who made two errors in a report after marking me with a Major error. The QA leader, of course, went over what "I" did wrong and why her QA was correct and mentioned the grammatical errors; however, didn't mention that they were made BY THE QA PERSON and left it implied that they were mine as well. I have a job interview tomorrow, in-house, doing office work. Can't wait. ...

Working my new way, I have just made $12.98 per HOUR !! WHOO HOO !!! I'm a-liking this !!! ...

this is from one of my quality coaches or whatever. A fix is going into place now and they expect us to be up and running soon, so please keep checking back and watch for emails from us. ...

thanks for all the replies. It was not listed on any of the sites provided. She must be a new doc in the area. Doc said and spelled the name 4 times in report, so I am pretty sure I got the spelling correct. Thanks again ...

I haven't posted lately, but I thought that I would just drop a line to keep anyone interested up to date. I am graduating in June with my M.D., near the top of my class. Already passed the boards. As my classes have progressed it has actually gotten much easier because of my years of transcribing. I know the treatment for most diseases because I have typed them time and time again. I know there is a lot of frustration out there because of what ...

I am updating, like I said I would. I'm still working, and I LOVE the job! Granted, the pay isn't where I would like it to be yet, but it gets better every day, because my line count gets higher every day! Thanks to those of you who encouraged and supported me during the hiring process! ...

on MQ Central just now? Nothing we didn't already know, really, but I think I'm going to go vomit anyway. ...

Well, the head tech guy called today and remotely went on my computer, and he could not find a solution to this error coming up when opening Editscript v 9. It will not work, so I cannot work. I have a new job, but I can't work because I can't get ES 9 to work. Funny thing is, it does this on both my computers, and one is an XP and one is Vista. What are the odds both computers would give this same error? The tech guy said they have never seen this error b ...

Is anyone using the latest DQS update? I think it's 6.1version. I've already gone through the training on it but haven't heard when it's going to be started. Thanks ...

About 2 weeks ago I posted that our company was sold to an Indian entity and expressed some concerns about the future of my job, having been down that road with MT. I had expressed those concerns to my manager, who passed them along to our director of human resources, who contacted me this week to discuss them. I asked her if they had explored at all what happened to MT when the Indian companies came onto (took over) the scene and I explained to her some of the challenges faced by th ...

The doc has contacted me and we are to meet today at his office. He has such a heavy accent, I could hardly understand what he was saying. He is in need of a transcriptionist, and has 50 charts needing to be transcribed. Not sure what type of equipment he has as of yet, but obviously he must have some kind. How do I charge him. I thought about by the line at maybe 12 cpl, but his accent is so heavy, I am thinking it will take me a while before being productive ...

Thanks to everyone who responded and I did call on this job but it was an evening job 3-11 so even though it was 18 bucks an hour that does not work for me have children at home...so back to looking into the MTSO companies and finding the best one out there - if anyone has suggestions let me know ...

A while back, I posted about my experience with Med Workshops. Initially, they offered to give me my money back since I had such an awful experience with them. After they were notified by the BBB that I had filed a complaint, they refused to refund my tuition. I wanted to give prospective students a heads up about this school. I really wish that I had done more research before giving them my money. Another thing I found interesting was that they told me not to believe anything that I rea ...

I worked for Landmark a while ago. Sorry for all the problems the current MTs are having. Have the owners come up with a solution about the insurance issue? Just a thought, but you might try calling your local state representative's office and asking about COBRA and/or an insurance plan run by your state that covers children. You may also have a county agency that can give you information about insurance coverage. Of note, the COBRA payment is usually the ent ...

I once was employed by DIT but fortunately no longer. Was wondering if anyone had an update on them. I am still owed about $1000, but have really given up on ever getting the rest of this money. I took them to small claims back several years ago. Are they still in business? Does anyone know? I got a 1099 with their old address on it which they are supposedly not there anymore. No one can get an address, much less a phone number because there are more claims out there. Just wonder ...

I haven't seen any recent posts about a lack of work at Oracle. Have things settled down to where everyone has sufficient work? I'm working for them PT and have only had 1-2 occasions where I've run out of work; however, my FTE is running out of work on an increasingly frequent basis and, if there's sufficient work at Oracle, I'd be interested in switching over to them as a FT position. Any updates on the status of the work flow? Judging from the email ...

**UPDATE** After 37 views and no answer to be found I went back as usual to check this report after QA. For future reference for those of you that even looked to try to help here is the answer to RDVP. It really does exist. Thanks to those of you that tried. RDVP/respiratory direct viral panel ...

I was just wondering what is happening at Precyse. I left Precyse last month after they sent my fourth account over to India, and there was no work. Management kept telling us to be patient and just use PTO, but we had not really had any work for months and had already used up most of the PTO. They blamed the no work situation on the bad weather during the winter. I am at a new company now, and they seem to appreciate me, which Precyse did not. My team leader ...

I got an e-mail yesterday about a job. I will be talking to "them" tomorrow. Wish me luck. Thanks. ...

This will probably be my final post. As some of you might recall, I graduated with my MD in 2010, and just received notice this week that I will be starting residency in July in Family Medicine. I once again want to reiterate to all of the MTs and QAs out there slaving away for M*Modal that there is no computer in the world that can replace a human brain, that your skills are valuable, and that you are professionals and irreplaceable. My 30 years in medical transcription was in ...

are these 2 different things? My group had it postponed until next week. It was supposed to be this past Wed. I just want to make sure these are 2 different things. I was under the impression Remedy 7.6 was mainly for placing support tickets. TIA. ...

Thanks everyone for your encouragement on my first post about 3 reports a day since I started with my new company. I have now been with the company as an IC for 4 days and still being restricted. I understand that new hires have to be checked. This is bordering on ridiculous, though. Today for instance I had one report, ONE. It was multiple patients on one dictation but after that, nothing. I waited for it to get through QA and reviewed corrections ...

Update on Milwaukee doctor. SM - Got paid, but what a story.

At least you got an apology. - nm

I'm glad your story has a happy ending. I'm thinking mine will not, nm - But live and learn... no more Texas MTSOs
